New Tait piece today, "One Month Till Free Agency" http://www.bluebombers.com/2017/01/13/226039/ “Generally when a player wants to be here and we want them here, it will sort itself out. Matt wants to be here, we want him here. It’s just a long process sometimes to get these things done.” -- Kyle Walters

Wouldn't that be something....years of "Nah, I'm good doing absolutely nothing..." and then decides to be a starter?? That's a bit of a hail mary from Jones...

^^ That's how he became known as "Smilin' Bank".....left for the NFL and rather than coming back to the Riders, went to Calgary for more money. Riders fans have hated him with a fiery passion since...

Here's the thing about Hank -- his massive ego rules all. If Ottawa tells him that they don't want him as a starter, he'll absolutely think about retiring. Unless....Jones comes to him with all sorts of hefty promises featuring big money and full time starter minutes, etc. Flattery will get you everywhere with an ego the size of Burris's....so you just never know.

Josh Bourke and that happened earlier this week (discussed elsewhere).......he's long past his best-before date. Due to retire.

No way Jones makes a move like this without having some kind of realistic plan for the immediate future. Now, having said that, until I see a legitimate QB sign his name to a contract with them, I'll continue to hope and pray for the most epic of tire fires over there...

Maurice isn't the problem...not yet, anyhow.......but there might be some bad apples. Hard to say without being in the room...

He's Chris Motherf***in' Scoreburn.....of course he is...

NOt to further derail this thread, but they were absolutely drastically misinformed on a lot of issues, because they were believing all the Facebook bullshit. People are so quick to believe things they see trending on their FB feed. A *LOT* of American voters got caught up in that nonsense.

Fwiw, Argos extend Larry Arugala today...

If he doesn't have an immediate suitor on FA day, he'll be back with the Bombers before long. Bombers would love to have him back, and he just wants to make as much money as he can (can't blame him) so he'll see what else is out there, but if nobody ponies up, the Bombers will be there, I'm sure. He won't sit out the first half.

3rd string is always your developmental guy....Glenn is 1 or 2, period. Basically any team, save for Calgary, would be doing well to have him as a back-up, at the very least.

They're projecting PoolParty's arc to be similar to Draisitl. Just have to be patient...time in the A will be good for Pool.

@CFL Keeping the Tank: @REDBLACKS have signed LB @Tank_Reed1911 to a 1 year contract extension.

I'm guessing it means you can watch it for free on NHL.com if you don't live in the Jets region (like me)....

Best thing for him......interesting about The Monster, too. He's been pretty awful in his limited reps.

THERE ARE NO MORE OFFSEASONS!!!!!!!!111!!!

Sounds like some of you think the season starts tomorrow... Hmmm...

Read the link I posted earlier in the thread. They released him early because they felt it was the classy thing to do, to give Glenn extra time. To try and work out a deal somewhere. They said we can't offer you a deal right now because we're still working on Nichols. So here's your release early, so you're free to try to work something out elsewhere, but if that doesn't pan out, we may be able to do something here later.

Hopefully receiver....

As for your grandma, she shouldn't have mouthed off like that...

This seems relevant here: http://www.bluebombers.com/2017/01/06/225745/

Sweden was the best team in the tourney but choked nearly every year in the medal round. It's pretty amazing actually...

Well, I do only see him about once a year since he was neutered...

he said, tentatively, while watching clumps of his hair fall to the floor.....
